Tony Khan Says 2025 Was His Favorite Year For ROH, Still Looking For Possible TV Deal

Tony Khan really enjoyed what he was able to do with ROH in 2025, and he says he’s still “evaluating opportunities” in regard to a ROH TV deal. ROH airs on HonorClub, and the notion of a traditional TV home for the company has long been speculated on. Khan has always said that he’s open to a deal and looks for them, but wants something that makes financial sense for AEW/ROH.

Khan was asked about a potential update on the matter on the Battleground Podcast. He said that he’s still looking for the best solution and praised ROH’s work in 2025. You can see highlights below:

On the Status Of an ROH TV Deal:

“I definitely am still evaluating the best opportunities for AEW and ROH strategically, and trying to put on exciting events. ROH has had so many great matches, even recently. I’m excited about the upcoming Global Wars ROH/Metroplex show. We’ve filmed some great stuff for ROH that’s going to be airing in the weeks to come. We have top champions there and I’m really proud of what we did.

On ROH’s 2025:

“I think 2025 was my favorite year start to finish of all the ROH. The first year we had three excellent pay-per-views with some of the best wrestling matches I think ever, including to me the FTR vs. the Briscoe trilogy. Probably the greatest tag team wrestling trilogy ever, and one of the greatest wrestling trilogies I think ever. And what a great privilege it was to work with the late great Jay Briscoe, as well as Mark Briscoe and of course FTR, the AEW World Tag Team Champions. And doing these ROH shows, I think this year we put on great pay-per-views and also had great TV events. We had Global Wars Mexico and huge matches all over the world.

“So we did some really exciting things. And the people who watched ROH, I really believe would tell you that a lot of the best wrestling in the world this past year and best events came in ROH So I can’t say exactly when and how we’ll be showing the TV to more people. But there’s a great platform right now with WatchROH.com that’s does well for us. And that’s why I’ve stuck with that for now until I figure out the best solution that works for everyone including AEW.”
